Thanks so much for your kind words on yesterdays post. You all are seriously the best!!
Friday was a BIG day - we bought a house! Were going to be in Ohio til April, so well only be there part time .. hopefully full time in April, (more info in this post).
David had to work Friday, so I did the final walk through and signed for both of us. For those of you (like me) that have never been a POA, for Davids signature, I had to sign his name, my name, then his attorney in fact. So basically a full sentence for each of Davids signature. It was a lot, but still not too bad :)
First, a little background information on our house.
1. It was built in 81 and is a post and beam construction.
2. It has a geothermal heating and cooling system. Were still learning about it, but the entire home was built with the intent to be energy efficient, its situated on the lot so that the majority of the windows are on a southern exposure (great for sunshine all day) youll notice that almost all of the windows are on one side of the house. I wont go into the entire heating/cooling system, but its located in a chimney stack that runs from the foundation to the roof. There is a wood stove in the basement, but no fireplace.
3. We also, know that there has been a history of designers and artists that have lived here, the first owner was an engineer, there was also a photography dark room and pottery room at some point too. Neat, huh?
Want to take a tour of our new home?
Come on in!
The front door is on the deck and enters into a mud room.
The closet is a little odd - opening into the bathroom too.
Theres a large coat closet to the left.
And a second exterior door (the mud room isnt climate controlled) before you enter the house.
The mud room opens to large a living / dining room and the kitchen. 
Were thinking, the living room by the windows and the dining room by the kitchen. The amazing windows will be a little tricky with furniture, but Im thinking maybe a clear lucite console table behind anything that its in front of a window?? Maybe, I havent drawn a floorplan or space planned yet.
and then a second door with a toilet
and shower.
The photo below is a good example of the sun damage on the floors. You can see where a table and/or rug was and a bookcase was against the chimney. 
To the right of the chimney. Annabelle loves looking through the bottom of the stairs so that should be covered somehow- we might put the TV there, but it will be tight, so maybe not. 
and looking up the stairs. Annabelle will easily go up the stairs but is scared going down .. Maybe because she has less control going down and she knows there are openings? 
Ill pick up tomorrow with the upstairs tour!!
